Wow. An accident like that you would think the driver would be dead. Good thing you walked out with a few scratches and a broken bone.

A few thoughts:
1) You had an angel on your shoulder that day. Big props to the guy upstairs for keepin' you around to build the next awesome Max!
2) If a Max can survive armageddon like that I'm gonna have to share my 5.5 with my soon-to-be-licensed daughter!
3) I'll be extra-conscious of the roads I'm on. I've had a few scares with unseen "features" like RR tracks and the like...guess I'll be slowing down in unfamiliar territory!

heck yeah you should, but an accident is an accident u can only prevent it not avoid it. i forgot what the crash test ratings are on our 5 gen max but hell im sure its good becuase of my accident and with it being a family sedan vs a real sports car. yeah im sure i did have some one watching over me perhaps my grandperents(both past away 20+years ago), im only 22 its probably not time yet eh? im defidentally going to buy my kid a max and only a maxima lol when they learn how to drive, and show them this is why im alive to be your father!!

Geeze you wadded that one up good. But the important part is you are still around. Granted the safety equipment of your car performed above and beyond it's design characteristics it's still reassuring to know that you essentially "Walked away" from such a horrible wreck.
